The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Ota tai jätä (lit. 'Take or Leave') was Finland's version of the television gameshow Deal or No Deal.

The set of Ota tai jätä is identical to the US version, and there are 26 cases (like most other versions), with amounts ranging from 5 cents (€0.05) to €500,000. The Finnish version featured the first female banker in the show's history. Sami Lainio is the biggest winner in the Finnish version. He won €200,000. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
